Summary: In this paper, we study $\mathrm{E}$-semigroups over convex cones. We prove a structure theorem for $\mathrm{E}$-semigroups which leave the algebra of compact operators invariant. Then we study in detail the CCR flows, $\mathrm{E}_0$-semigroups constructed from isometric representations, by describing their units and gauge groups. We exhibit an uncountable family of $2$-parameter CCR flows, containing mutually non-cocycle-conjugate $\mathrm{E}_0$-semigroups.
